Bacchus Capital Management has done it again!…read more Toro Sushi sits off the main drag in BSL. They have a small side parking lot which is an added bonus considering the parking constraints of downtown. The space is gorgeous. Bright white walls with blue accents. They boast a spacious indoor seating area complemented by even more seating in their upstairs bar/balcony area. We didn't have a reservation but we got there early enough in the evening that we were able to snag some seats at the bar and able to see the gorgeous sunset from the balcony. When I first saw the menu, I'll admit I was underwhelmed. This is NOT your normal sushi restaurant, which is what I was expecting. It is more of a Japanese tapas bar. It is super unique. To start off, I ordered the lychee mojito. It was pricey but good. We did the spicy edamame as an appetizer and it was spicy indeed and very tasty. For my entree, I selected the spicy California roll and it was a great size and very delicious. My date got the tuna tacos which I also sampled and they were also excellent. To top it all off, the service was spectacular- the young lady and gentleman working the bar were top notch and they were the cherry on the top for a wonderful dining experience.

Fresh seafood from the Gulf of MEXICO and a wicked drink menu. They offer several ceviches. Tapas include guacamole, empanadas, crawfish queso, fish dip and veggie salads like crispy cauliflower and Brussels sprouts. We had the crispy cauliflower served with tempura, cashew habanero crema, garbanzo hash, and chimichurri. Loads of flavor and just the right bite size for tapas/apps. Plates include churrasco, fish and grits, paella (can be served veggie or without shellfish if you're allergic), lamb, Yucatan style pork, shrimp or steak mofongo, and chicken poblano. I had the churrasco, served with papas bravas. Steak cooked perfectly and seasoned perfectly. My husband had the steak mofongo and the beef tips, like the churrasco, were seasoned perfectly. The plantain mash was sweet and somehow savory at the same time. We loved both dishes. They make mean margaritas and caipirinhas hre, and also offer drinks like the paloma, the Bolivian sour, sangria, and specialty drinks. Service was amazing. She was so upbeat and helpful. This restaurant was a little slow when we went. It deserves a lot more love. It's so close to the touristy part of the French Quarter. Leave the gimmicky spots and come here, you won't regret it.

They have done a fantastic job at refurbishing the place into a quaint little restaurant. We went on a Friday night and they had live music on the deck. I'm handicapped and found parking was a little difficult however, once inside the restaurant the staff was extremely helpful and attentive. Their specialty drinks were fantastic. I had a El jefe.which is their version of an Old Fashioned. To be honest I liked it better than the typical Old Fashioned. They have a great wine list too. My wife ordered the creamy goat cheese tapas (appetizer) and it great. Very light and tasty. My in-laws ordered the Setas al Ajillo. They are button mushrooms that have been and white ones and other spices and they were fantastic. On to the main course. My wife and I shared the seafood paella for dinner. And my in-laws shared the pan bronzed redfish. They were both exceptional. We will definitely be returning both for dinner and the occasional tapas and cocktails. PS. Please note that if you want to try one of the Paella meals that it takes about 30-40 minutes for them to prepare it but it's so worth it.

My wife and I have been meaning to try out Valencia and finally got around to it for a birthday…read morelunch today. Valencia, near downtown Covington, is a stylish, contemporary presence featuring tapas and traditional Spanish cuisine, with a respectful nod to the local culture. Service was friendly and attentive today, with Dara providing valuable info on menu offerings and taking excellent care of us. Today we enjoyed their specialty tapas; a Valencia roll, fried calamari, and a brand new offering - fried chicken pesto flatbread. All were excellent, with the roll having a sumptuous glaze and the calamari packing a tasty jalapeño punch. The flatbread, which we found out that we were the first to try, may have been the star of the show; generously portioned, with a thin crust, moist chicken and a zesty , but not overpowering, pesto finish. Although we were too full for dessert, several appealing ones were available. A number of specialty cocktails were also featured. We enjoyed their sangria. We look forward to returning to Valencia!

They need to pre heat their press and set a timer instead of guessing on the time to do French press properly Did a small stack lemon soufflé and their pancakes are just so light and airy and awesome. Don't think I've had such light pancakes before. Like a cloud in your mouth. Only gripe for sure not nearly enough lemon flavor but still enjoyed. If they fix that I'd get normal size for sure next time and not look back. The cinnamon rolls are also a hit over here. Just spot on classic good roll. The crab cake Benedict was ok wouldn't do it again. Also wouldn't do the lox bagel as way too salty. The burger was ok as well. Weird bread choice but kid ate it. Server was awesome and fun but food was slow to get out.

We got the crab cheese dip as an app, which i did not like hot cheese and mayo (?) with pieces of crab- tasted like something heated up in the microwave. Pita chips tasted like Costco - deff not fresh. Wondering why 2 stars? Well our server walks out at the end and says " in the mood for something sweet?" And proceeds to lay down two spoons. He then comes out with a sponge cake desert that we did not order. the impression from us was it was on the house- we didn't pick the dessert and did not ask for it.

Music a bit loud. Server was very professional and pleasant. Service slow. At least 20 minutes between appetizers and "entrees". Servings small, but to be expected at a tapas place. The food was good but not great. In particular the patatas Bravas were not authentic. Instead of the traditional yellow, very eggy topping, they used some sort of hot condiment and maybe mayo? A trend I'm seeing in many newer restaurants is charging for "bread service". This ridiculous and needs to stop. I am not paying $8 for bread. No serious restaurant does this. Can you imagine paying for bread at Galatoires or Commanders? The world would come to an end. All in all I probably won't return but I wish it well.

This is a nice restaurant with lots of fun, friendly staff. We came in about an hour prior to closing time as we waited for our train ride back. Our waitress recommended this dessert and she recommended us get it with extra marshmallow or chocolate and that is what we did. I was expecting more of a cookie cake flavor, but the flavor I got was still good. I think what I was missing was some icing, maybe? I have to come back to try some of those pizzas, everything looked and smelled so good. Everything here was clean and the location is not far from the train tracks. The space is pretty large and would be good for groups. It was a nice ending to a long, nice visit to this quaint down.
